However, she has brain aneurysms, and needs to reduce stress. She feels extremely stressed by any disagreement, and wrongly or not, takes on the responsibiltiy of the disagreements here because she happened to begin this thread. Due to the stress she is feeling, she feels she has to leave YT to lighten her personal stress load.
Joan too has been feeling stress due to some of the interpersonal issues some members have with each other. She is a very caring and empathetic person, and it bothers her to no end when two intelligent people would rather cat fight than have a meaningful in-thread conversation.
Villette has personal problems with a particular member that I know of because of what she has witnessed this particular member doing to other members that cause them actual personal harm, whether emotional, stressful, or otherwise. She feels the stress of this person constantly, and has a hard time being here because this other person is allowed to remain.
And me? I love them all. I wish we all could take this board a lot less seriously and just agree to disagree and live and let live. But if you have so much stress because of the board that it harms you phyically and/or emotionally, then by all means, you should all leave it, or at least take a break. It just is NOT worth it...
I love all of you, and will miss you if you go. But please go if you must.
